Cindy needs our help

I got an email from Cindy Sheehan today regarding the reviews the freepers are leaving on amazon.com about her book"Not one more mother's child"
The reveiws are very insulting and nasty and are not about the book, they are people's opinions about Cindy.
If you have read the book or know whats in it please go to amazon and leave a positive review for Cindy.I just left one and there are a bunch of really bad ones on there.
Thank you in advance for any help you can give

1. amazon will take them down

It takes a while, but they do a really good job of policing the trash "reviews" that clearly indicate that a poster hasn't read the book, but is just bitching about the author.

It'll be all right. I've had this done to me when my books have come out, and amazon is really good about deleting them. Same as Barnes & Noble.

5. It takes about a week

Besides, people who see them will know them for what they are.

Happens all the time. One of the reasons I now use a nom de plume.

7. I'm glad to help

I've reported a few of the vilest reviews and I've made sure to rate all the reviews appropriately. Anything to annoy the slimy freepers.

8. I just went to Amazon and checked. They are all gone.

Everything is five stars except for two freepers (maybe) they left up with two stars, but they aren't vicious like the others.
